Anyone know if all this rain has helped cooper out at all? What water level does it need to get back to before you can launch?

needs to come up 3 ft, this rain did not help any to speak of

It's almost up to 428...so 431 is the magic #?

I just checked it and saw 428 also so it should just need 1.5 to 2 ft and we can launch, come on rain !!!

Btw we are suppose to be able to launch at this level but over the years the silt has changed it big time. sure wish they would dredge

Right on...maybe this mornings rains will help

If I don't get to fish this week I will make a drive to Dr Creek and get some new pictures, I would love to be able to get on Cooper again..

Please do. I may try to get by there one day this week as well. Haven't had my new boat on cooper yet and my son and I are really looking forward to getting back out there.

I heard that some spots close to Cooper showed 8", I don't know where or if true, but got the info from a very good fisherman there. I am just N of Tawakoni and all together we have not got over 1/2" here, on Tawakoni yesterday and honestly it seemed lower at the St Park ramp going out, there are new things showing that I have not seen before.

I went on Friday to bank fish. All ramps are dried. Will need a hurricane to bring the water level up. Check out this post I posted 3 weeks ago. The water came up some but still long way to go.

I did speak with the Ranger not long ago and they said it would take a 1 foot rain ! To do it. Not just showers over time but 12" at 1 time. Not long ago there was a boat in Cooper but I don't have a clue how they got it in and out.

I have been kayaking there lately and I have seen some guys driving down the Tira ramp to the point and man handling a small boat off the trailer. They will fine you if they catch you doing it. Right now the bite a little off but after the water clears and warms up a bit it should be pretty good, Hopefully the level will continue to rise.

lenahorse...the Sabine crested at 14 feet with the tornadoes and flash flooding. None of that made it to Tawakoni?

Dan it might have but we saw things that I have never seen before out of the water, I do know the ramp area is down the sign said about 2.8 foot I think, there is a sand point I saw going out that I have never seen before.

Tira on Saturday 4/5.
